what's cooking wednesday - hot chocolate floats

Gosh, you give me a Monday off and that just throws me off for the rest of the week.I should have posted this last night, but better late than never, right?

It's that time of the year, hot chocolate season! Abby asked me to pick some up this week since we were out. She was helping put the stuff away when she got very excited... you got hot chocolate floats?!

I hadn't. In fact I had never heard of such a thing. I bought hot chocolate, but she showed me the side of the package and there was a recipe for hot chocolate floats printed right there. Mike had to work afternoons all weekend so the girls and I settled in with a movie and hot chocolate floats.

They are pretty easy to make too.....

Make yourself a mug of hot chocolate and add a scoop of ice cream. Topping with whipped cream is completely optional.

No surprise these were big hits here. I'm thinking jammies, hot chocolate floats and a Christmas movie will work it's way into the 25 days of Christmas this year.




What is What's Cooking Wednesday and how can I play?

What's cooking Wednesday was born out of a desire to get out of that what's for dinner rut. Playing is easy, on Wednesday post a recipe that has been tried and tested by you and then pop over here and add your name to the Mr. Linky. When entering your name also add the name of the recipe in brackets and make sure you link to your What's Cooking Wednesday post and not just your blog's front page.
*All front page links will be deleted!*
*Posts that aren't linked back will be deleted*
*Posts that don't include some sort of a recipe will be deleted*

Don't make me be a jerk. And don't forget to link back here, the home of What's Cooking Wednesday.

So for example I would write Shan (Speedy Chicken Stir Fry) in the name section. For the URL section I would post this: http://shanrev.blogspot.com/2007/10/whats-cooking-wednesday-speedy-chicken.html

I'll let you in on a little secret, my WCW recipes are almost never made on a Wednesday. So feel free to cook and photograph whenever you have time and join us posting on Wednesday

we'll have to try that out! Though I'm feeling like the ice cream would turn the hot cocoa into cold choc. milk???
